As we know, the Olympics are being held in Beijing this year. Gucci Creative Director Frida Giannini created a line called 8-8-2008. Her eight (totally over-the-top) souvenir items were designed to celebrate this year's events.

Of course, the one that caught my eye was the "China red" cruiser ($3420)! Besides that, the line includes a $3150 Mahjong set, a panda bear stuffed animal, dog tag necklace, two pieces of luggage, a red wrist banded digital watch (the brand's first digital timepiece) , and red suede sneakers for both her and him.Huang Xiaoming is also the first Asian model for Gucci. He's looking pretty good in the ads, too! But if I had a choice, I'd definitely choose the bike over him.I did some research and the number "8" means prosperity in Chinese. These items are only sold in Gucci stores in China and Hong Kong.Source URL: http://icip2idayusof.blogspot.com/2008/07/man-fashion-gucci-8-limited-edition.htmlVisit Icip2idayusof for daily updated images of art collection
